Blood Lad

Repost for the page roll over Chapter 10

It's just a classic shonen situation I find it to be really plausible. He's going to keep going at it with such persistence that he makes his sister feel bad.

OR Portal Girl is just gonna break him out next issue.

Alternatively, he could use some sort of trick against the Zombies similar to the one he used on Wolf.

I had forgotten about Portal Girl however it does suggest that this prison is in its own pocket dimension so it would probably take her some time to locate Stanz.

That would only work if they keep their power in their body like Wolf does. They might, but we don't know that for certain. Although them controlling their bodies from a distance is probably evidence against them keeping everything inside.

I have been hearing some unfounded rumors that this may be getting an anime.

Interesting. This series isn't on my list of manga I want to get an anime but I would probably still watch it if it was made.

Unless there is a lot more material untranslated than I know about I think it's most likely a bad idea.

Baka Updates says there are four volumes out in Japan. I don't know how long that would mean it is though.

I think 26 episodes is around 4 volumes depending the pacing of the anime. If filler and padding is added it can be longer if not and they are really trying to have quick pacing it can be less.

Chapter 11

Stanz seems to have a...complicated family

That's putting it mildly. I so called the him keep trying the zombies though.

I did like how the zombies got sick of him. Any thoughts on what this this mysterious enemy is?

I like how he gave the zombies a troll face when he pressed the button the second they threw him back in the cell.

So I think his brothers power will revolve around shooting people with whatever effect he wants to happen. Along with his Vampire powers.

Let's see classic monster villain...hmmmm...Swampthing?

I doubt it will be Swampthing. Frank said it was a hybrid so it could be a ghost who has absorbed powers from every form of monster to become some sort of super monster or something

It's the ghost of King Hamlet

Chapter 12 and 13 are out.

Well that was very good. Looks like Stanz's brother isn't as much of a Jerk as I thought. Stanz got his powers back a bit too easily but things are definitely looking interesting with this Papladon Akimu guy.

I don't know. He's definitively of the mad scientist type. He seems to not do horrible things in spite of himself rather than it is what he wants to do. He has a heart I guess but it annoys him.

Chapter 14 is up!

Interesting, so Akimu is a spirit wearing a skinsuit and Franken is a bit of a jerk. Also I did lol at Stanz in this chapter

Yeah this was pretty nice. I like how they spent time complaining about his five minute time limit.

Yes that is definitely an interesting way to do a halfbreeds powers. I did also like portal girl in this chapter and think it would be interesting to see her fight Franken.

I don't think Franken is much of a physical confrontation guy. Then again he could surprise me. I don't see why he would attack her though. Even though she knows he still thinks that the ghost thing is gonna win. Plus if he kills her he's stuck in her place.

By the by Stan's powers since he manipulates energy should work very well on that thing. It's two manipulators.

It probably is quite unlikely for them to fight it is just I am interested in seeing what she is like in a fight.

As for Stanz, it could be interesting as his major problem is lack of control. He could probably win quite easily if he went all out but in doing so he would probably level a couple of buildings and kill a load of people in the process.

Well when she fought Stan all she did was redirect his attacks back at him. Which I suppose is what a portal maker would do. Well that and drop things on them or just run away.

Yeah I bet Stanz will have control problems out the yin yang.
